At the end of the day, I actually feel kind of happy. Weird.
Karen left school early to go to the dentist, so she was home before me. I put my backpack in my room, and took out the permission slip. I looked for Holly in the living room, and she wasn't there, so I went into the kitchen.
Karen was making a snack. When I came in she turned to look at me, but then she turned back to what she was doing. I stand there and stare at her for a few minutes, then she turns back to look at me.
"What do you want, emu?"
I think I'll surprise her.
"First of all, an emu is an animal. I believe you're trying to say emo." I can't even begin to describe the look of shock on her face. "Second, where's Holly."
"My mother," She puts emphasis on the word "my". "went to her friend's house."
"Thanks, plastic. I mean Karen." I look back at her. "Heh, no, I mean plastic."
The look on her face is a mixture of shock, anger, and confusion.
After dinner Holly signed my permission slip.
